With Att fiber, I had to use their gateway or not have internet. You can set it to passthrough mode but I didn’t really trust that even with my own router and their wifi disabled.
On Comcast/xfinity copper 2.5, I am 100% using my own modem and router. They kept pushing me to get a streaming box, thermostat, camera, whatever the fuck else and it took several steps to get just the basic service.
Use your own modem and router so your ISP doesn’t have access to it.
